It is officially mid-February and the weather here in Escalante has been epic the past few days. The 16 inches of snow just about gone. Now granted, it is likely that we will incur a bit more inclement weather, but this break has been fabulous. Rick has been getting out and doing some canyoneering in Nevada and California along with more exploring in Baja, MX.

The 2016 Season will kick off with our first tour March 7th. I liked this shot that someone emailed me of the guides hiking out of the canyons. The warm summer months are just around the corner! Belay is On!

The Winter months are going by ever so quickly. Escalante is currently blanketed in a foot of snow! Rick had a chance to get out of the cold and do a canyon named Bubba's in Nevada. Below are a couple of shots.

Thanks Petzl for sending Rick the new static Push rope to test out!

The 2016 Season is right around the corner and we are preparing for March 8th opening. Come and visit us for an adventure in the slots!
